I don' t like to wear all those big brands, just ones that aren't quite as well known. And everyone is walking around with fake lv here, but you can always tell.

Just a little recap of what you are looking for: Expensive lesser known brand name shoes so that you can attract shallow girls? If that is the case like Chomeo said the baller thread is a great place for you. If you go through the posts there are many lesser known expensive shoes that will attract girls who you can barely hold a conversation with but will give you a great fellatio in the taxi ride to the hotel. I could have your premise for starting this thread wrong - I failed English Lit in high school cause I interpreted what the author was trying to relay incorrect a lot of the time . You could be looking for a pair of sneaks that enhance your style and want a good, durable shoe that will last you many moons and believe that only expensive shoes are made with good quality materials. In which case good luck in your quest. Note: I don't mean to criticize only vent cause people who believes what a man can buy = how great of a man he is.

Will this shoe look more expensive? Before I have never had expensive shoes, except a mark nason moreland loafer.
What better way to look expensive, than be wearing a famous luxury brand that everyone knows is expensive. e.g. authentic Gucci, Prada or Louis Vuitton. I mean if your target audience doesn't recognise a certain brand, because it's little known, they are not going to know it's expensive and may not give it a second look. Those Farragamo 'sneakers' you originally posted, just don't look expensive. In fact they look like cheap bowling shoes. Also how many people have ever heard of 'Salvatore Ferragamo', compared to the likes of Gucci or LV? EDIT: BTW I wear a Rado watch, which is actually a fairly expensive watch, but not as expensive as some though. I originally bought it because I like it, and NOT because the price or trying to look expensive. But it turns out in China many do recognise Rado as been an expensive watch due to high profile advertising... Attachment 66631 ... many people, even here in Xilinhot, often gaze at and admire my watch. Although it's not the model on that Beijing billboard, and it's not covered in diamonds.

not to be a dick but... you seriously have to try harder than those if you're trying to "get" a rich girl in china who will probably laugh at those shoes..

Thanks for setting me straight guys. I noticed what all the rich chinese guys were buying and its all shit. Like if you go to a mall here to buy expensive shoes, they will be around 6000 RMB (Almost 1000 US dollars), but their quality kinda sucks. Chinese people pay 2x as much for designer items like diesel. (I'm disregarding all fakes, like I just bought some pumas for 3 USD and some diesel shoes for 4 USD that both broke in 1 month)

So now I wear as casual as possible when I'm not going to an interview or something, just the cheapest all natural fiber I can buy. Picking up Chinese girls is different, but easier than anywhere else I've been. I can't believe these thoughts earlier even went through my mind... f*cking trying to impress them haha. Not to be disrespectful or anything... they disrespect themselves enough. I guess it's true everywhere, if people perceive you to be trying less you'll get more action.
